Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Raptor Nesting Closures
Details
JULY 5 UPDATE FROM PARK MANAGEMENT:
ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior. Check this site for details:

Description
While Bonfire is nothing to write home about, it does act as a great warm-up for harder climbs in the area or a good climb for someone who likes just a hint of wide crack in there climb. The upper wide crack can easily be a lie back but the more technical off-width style is actually easier in terms of effort input.
Location
this route splits into two at about half the way up the wall. it is the right of the two upper sections. No anchors on top. Build one.
Protection
Gear to 4" is nice but can be climbed with no 4" piece if your comfortable with the grade.
